Complexity

The sawmill industry consists of standardized processes that are ripe for automation. While regulatory and compliance barriers are present, they are not overly restrictive. The capital and infrastructure requirements are significant but manageable with an increasing focus on digital transformation. Data usage can be expanded with AI, and the workforce consists of roles that can largely be automated. The industry is adapting to AI, albeit with some challenges.
